There is no protest against the status-quo that the press (including "the liberal press") can't depict as violent. You have seen the female Australian reporter being targeted with a rubber bullet on camera only to have her own channel report it as her "being caught in the crossfire" right? Hasan was out there for two days documenting the incredible violent reaction of law enforcement to what has been almost completely non violent protests against the unlawful kidnappings of immigrants. He knows what he is talking about. If your concern is not the well being of the protesters but three fucking waymos or people waving Mexican flags, you are just self-reporting.
